compile spec
What do you need to be able to translate a vegalite spec into ggplot2 commands? I see some V8 history. Is that what you need or do you need more? Happy to help.
I think I over-thought the older stuff :-)
Vega-Lite can't handle more than one data source. That really simplifies things. So I should be able to adapt the code to handle the export of basic ggplot2 objects (completed ones).
What will need work is translating all the stat_ operations to calculate, filter, etc operations.
However to get a spec into ggplot2 will require some expression compilation. I'm not sure it's worth it in the long run. Prbly going to spend some cycles getting a title field into the widget and figuring out how to get interactive functionality within the chart (it seems possible). Or get some older pkgs out the door first :-)
